Krista has been married to a wonderful man for over an year and has known him for three years but they are now finding out that they do not have the same level of sexual desire and are almost living in a sexless marriage. “I am always in the mood and he is not. I want it every day, if he would give it to me, but he thinks I am insatiable and calls me addicted to sex. He and I finally talked about it and he feels pressured by me. I am the one who starts it almost every time and I am starting to feel ugly, but I know that is not how he feels. I am finally comfortable in myself enough to be expressive and and excited that I have someone to explore my desires and fantasies with. I just love him so very much. I don’t feel that the everyday good morning/good night kisses are enough. Please give me some strong advice. I don’t want miscommunication to cause us any more distress than it already has,” she writes.

Libido differences among couples are a common problem and that is exactly what you are going through. First of all, rarely will a couple have the same libido or desire to try new things. Secondly, short term problems like stress, lack of sleep, depression, financial problems, etc. can lower libido among men. By the way, I am assuming that when he does have sex, he performs normally, and has no problems like erectile dysfunction.

So what can you do?

If you find that his sexual desire has gone down only recently, try to guess what could be wrong and then try to fix it – you might even need medical help for him. If he has low level of libido and reluctance to try new things due to his personality, then, it will change only slowly over time after trying for years. In the meantime I can understand how frustrating it is for a woman not to be sexually satisfied by a man she loves. These are the women that end up finding other partners.
